I. INTRODUCTION

The SurgeX®SA-20-AR is a network attached, IP addressed, web-controlled AC surge

eliminator and power conditioner. The SA-20-AR may be used to switch up to 20A at 120V.

The simple web server structure allows basic control of two outlets. The extensive programming

and setup capabilities are accessed by a web browser, through a Device Management Utility

(DMU), or through a Command Line Interface (CLI).

•The SA-20-AR features SurgeX® Advanced Series Mode®surge elimination and

Impedance Tolerant EMI/RFI filtering.

•Remote reboot any device: monitors, routers, servers, kiosks, etc. The remote device need

not be network attached.

•Conserve energy by powering down equipment when not in use.

•Telnet access uses the Command Line Interface (CLI) structure and syntax to completely

configure and control the SA-20-AR. This Axess Ready (AR) device also supports the

DxP protocol, which allows software developers to integrate the unit into custom

applications.

•Up to 2 systems can be continuously monitored with AutoPing, with automatic power

control upon loss of contact. Reboot crashed systems, or provide auto power-up or -down

for environmental controls and notification systems.

•The SA-20-AR utilizes 2 levels of password security, with only the administrative

account having access to setup and configuration.

IV. INITIAL SET-UP

Device Management Utility (DMU)

The SurgeX Device Management Utility (DMU)

provides the easiest means to find and configure

your AR for use. The DMU can:

1. Automatically discover multiple ARs on a

local network.

2. Display the current IP address of each AR.

3. Allow the setting of a new IP address for each AR.

4. Perform firmware upgrades.

5. Return an AR to Factory Defaults.

The SurgeX Device Management Utility is

available on the SurgeX website at

http://www.surgex.com

Note: The IP address can only be set within the

first 2 minutes after powering up the AR. The

utility will only work with ARs on the same local

subnet as the PC.

•Device

oDiscover: Automatically discover all

ARs on the local network. The DMU

will display the location name of the

AR, the product ID and version

number, the current IP address, and the

MAC address. Factory defaulted ARs

will display with the name Axess

Ready and have an IP address that was

automatically assigned by the DHCP

server on your network.

-The IP address field also indicates the port for web access that is currently in

use by the AR. The standard port for web browser accessibility is factory

default Port 80.

oAdd: Manually add an AR by IP address.

oClear: Clear the list.

SA-20-AR User Manual

______________________________________________________________________________

•Manage

oOpen Browser: Opens the web browser interface for the selected AR.

oUpgrade Firmware: Starts the Firmware Upgrade dialogue.

Firmware Upgrade requirements:

-Valid firmware file.

-Administrative login credentials.

-“Upgrade Enable” must be set to yes, set via web page or CLI.

•Set

oIP Address: Changes the IP address of the selected AR.

oFactory Defaults: Return the selected AR to a Factory Default state. This action must

be performed within the first 2 minutes after powering up the unit.

oLocal Address: Select the IP address to Discover on. This may be necessary for

computers with multiple network connections.

•Exit

oExits the DMU program.

•Help

oOnline Help: Opens a web browser to online help resources.

oAbout: Displays DMU version information.

Setting the IP Address

ARs are configured with a DHCP assigned factory default IP address.

To set the AR’s IP address using one of the following methods, the computer and AR must be on

the same local network.

oDMU: Follow the steps in the preceding subsection to set the IP address using the

Device Management Utility (DMU).

oCLI: These are the basic commands to set the network parameters. After setting these

parameters, the AR will need to be rebooted for the settings to take effect. Any command

that requires rebooting of the AR will provide a prompt to do so. All commands may be

entered as required before rebooting. Manually specifying the IP address via CLI

automatically sets the address as static.

SA-20-AR User Manual

______________________________________________________________________________

Example: Telnet to default IP address of 192.168.1.254 on default Port 23:

SurgeX Axess Ready v1.01.41

User> admin

Password> *****

Axess Ready> set ipaddress 10.1.2.69

Axess Ready Reboot Required> set subnet 255.255.255.0

Axess Ready Reboot Required> set gateway 10.1.2.1

Axess Ready Reboot Required> reboot

The CLI command set ipmode dhcp followed by a reboot command may be used to

configure the AR to automatically acquire its network settings from a DHCP server. A

DHCP server will automatically assign an IP address (dynamic address), as well as the

Subnet Mask and Gateway.

To determine what IP address has been automatically assigned by the DHCP server, you

will need to use the Discover feature of the DMU or query your DHCP server and locate

the MAC address of the AR in the DHCP server’s IP/MAC table.

oWeb: To set the IP address using a web browser, navigate to the current IP address of the

AR. Enter the administrator credentials (Factory Default User: admin, Password:

admin), click on “Setup”, then click on “Network” and follow the directions in the Web

Server/Network/Setup section of this manual.

SA-20-AR User Manual

______________________________________________________________________________

V. WEB SERVER

The Axess Ready web interface provides the easiest means of operating the outlet and changing

configuration parameters.

To access the web interface, open a web browser and enter the IP address of the AR into the

address bar.

Password

The AR uses two username/password credential sets, one for normal power control (user) and

one that also provides access to the Setup functions (admin).

Default credentials:

Role

Username (fixed)

Password (user set)

Administrator

admin

User

user

Enter a valid username and password when prompted.

When the proper username/password combination is

received, the Control and Status Page is displayed.

Control and Status Page

Once a user is validated, the Control and Status page is

displayed.

Note: Only one user may be logged in to the AR at a time.

Press “Power On” or “Power Off” to turn the AC output

On or Off. In the event of a power outage, the AC output

will return to its last known state prior to the outage.

Press “Cycle Power” to temporarily change the state of the AC output for a specified cycle time

(factory default is 10 seconds). The cycle operation performed will either be On-Off-On or Off-

On-Off, depending on the initial state of the AC output. During the power cycle operation, the

Power Status bar will indicate the temporary status with a Blue background. Once the cycle is

complete, the status bar will revert to its original condition. To abort a power cycle, press either

“Power On” or “Power Off” and the outlets will assume that status.

Use the Refresh button to update the page with the most current status. Use of the browser’s

refresh button may lead to inadvertent power switching. If an NTP time server is being used, the

time of the last refresh will be displayed in the upper right corner, as well as a History log below

the Power Status.

SA-20-AR User Manual

______________________________________________________________________________

Setup Pages

Setup pages are only available while logged in with Administrator credentials. Press Save to save

the new settings. If the new settings require the AR to be rebooted, a Reboot button will appear

at the bottom of the page. Settings requiring reboot will not take effect until the unit is rebooted.

oDevice

•Location ID: Specifies a name label (up to 20 characters) that will be displayed at

the top of all pages. Assigning unique names is helpful for management of

multiple units.

•Cycle Time: Specifies the length in seconds of a power cycle (1-999 seconds).

This is the amount of time the outlet will temporarily be On or Off, depending on

the initial outlet state.

•Disable Off: When checked, removes the Power OFF button from the Status and

Control page.

•Upgrade Enable: Enables the ability to upgrade the firmware of the AR.

•Auto Logout: Specifies the inactivity timer duration in minutes (0-99 minutes). If

there is no activity after the specified amount of time, the user will be

automatically logged out. Setting the timer duration to 0 disables the timeout

feature.

•Enable Security Timeout: When unchecked, disables the 2-minute window for

setting IP address and factory defaults via DMU.

Important: As the AR allows only one web user logged in at any time, use

caution when disabling the timeout feature, as it is possible to lock out other

users by forgetting to log out. Closing the web browser will not log the user

out and may lock out web access. In this situation it will be necessary to

access the AR via telnet and reboot the unit.

SA-20-AR User Manual

______________________________________________________________________________

oAutoPing

The AutoPing feature allows the AR to automatically detect failed equipment and

perform a timed reboot or other power control function (like turning on an indicator or

siren). First specify one or two IP addresses to be periodically pinged. When the AR no

longer receives a response from these addresses, the programmed power control function

is actuated. AND or OR logic can be applied to the two addresses, so that both (AND) or

either (OR) must fail in order to trigger the selected action.

Examples:

Server monitor: AR is installed with the

device it monitors and automatically reboots if

there is no response. Ideal for Kiosks and

Servers.

Service monitor: AR is installed with the

device to be rebooted but pings a remote host

to test the communication channel. Ideal for

DSL/Cable Modem verification.

AR monitors a network device and powers up

an alarm or redundant system when there is no

response. Ideal for Hot Standby Servers,

Environmental Control, Alert for any network

failure.

•IP Address 1 and 2: Enter the IP address(es) of the device(s) to be pinged.

•Frequency 1 and 2: Enter the desired ping frequency in seconds for the device(s)

to be pinged (1-999 seconds).

•Fail Count 1 and 2: Enter the number of times the ping must consecutively fail

(1-999) before the selected action is triggered.

•Mode: Select the logic to be used (AND, OR, or Single). With AND logic, both

AutoPings must exceed their fail count to trigger the action. With OR logic, the

action will be triggered if either AutoPing exceeds its fail count. With Single,

only AutoPing 1 is used.

SA-20-AR User Manual

______________________________________________________________________________

•Action: Select the action to be triggered.

response returns, AR will power off.

Power Off –Latch

Upon triggering, AR will power off and remain so until

changed via web, telnet, or DxP.

Power Off –Follow

Upon triggering, AR will power off. When the ping

response returns, AR will power on.

Power Cycle

Upon triggering, AR will cycle the power. AR will

then wait for (Ping Frequency x Fail Count) seconds; if

the response does not return, the power will be cycled

again. This will repeatedly continue until the ping

response returns or AutoPing is turned off. Ensure that

the AutoPing frequency is longer than the time

required to reboot the device.

Power Cycle - Once

Upon triggering, AR will cycle power one time. It will

not cycle again automatically until the ping response

returns and is lost again.

SA-20-AR User Manual
